This monophonic, performance-oriented synth is the latest addition to the Evolver family. The voice architecture is identical to its siblings, but it sports a 3-octave keyboard, pitch and mod wheels, and enough knobs and switches to put a smile on the face of even the most jaded tweaker.

Features

• Monstrous four oscillator voice architecture: two analog and two digital.
• True stereo signal path with separate Curtis analog low-pass filters in each channel.
• Dedicated onboard effects (feedback, delay, distortion, high-pass filter, etc.).
• Highly accessible sound control for easy, intuitive operation: 58 knobs—43 of them potentiometers—and 33 switches.
• 16 x 4 step sequencer really brings the Evolver to life with evolving “pseudo-polyphonic” sounds – you won’t believe it's monophonic!
• Stereo audio input for audio processing of external stereo or mono signals, enabling the synth to act as a unique stereo effects processor.
• Everything (sequencer, LFOs, and delay) syncs perfectly to MIDI.
• Multiple Evolvers can be daisy-chained for increased polyphony.

• 3-octave, semi-weighted action keyboard with velocity and aftertouch.
• Spring-loaded pitch wheel and assignable mod wheel.
• 512 fully editable Programs (4 banks of 128) Oscillators: 2 digitally controlled analog oscillators (DCOs) with selectable sawtooth, triangle, saw/triangle mix, and pulse waves (with pulse-width modulation), and hard sync; 2 digital wavetable oscillators with Prophet VS waves and wave sequencing capability, FM and ring modulation.
• White noise generator
• 2 Low-pass filters: 1 analog Curtis filter per channel, selectable 2- and 4-pole operation (self-resonating in 4-pole mode).
• 3 Envelope Generators: filter, VCA, and assignable (four-stage ADSR).
• 4 LFOs.
• Glide (portamento): separate rates per oscillator.
• Analog VCAs.
• Digital high-pass filter.
• Digital delays: 3 separate, syncable, stereo delay lines.
• Tuned feedback with "Grunge": use feedback as a pitched sound source.
• Distortion and "Output Hack."
• 16 x 4 step sequencer: one sequence per Program.
• Arpeggiator: up, down, up/down, and assignable modes, and latched operation.

Ins and Outs

• MIDI In, Out, Thru, and Poly Chain.
• Stereo audio input: 1/4" unbalanced.
• Main stereo audio output: 1/4" unbalanced.
• Sustain pedal input: accepts normally on or normally off momentary footswitch.
• Pedal/CV1 and Pedal/CV2 inputs: responds to expression pedals or control voltages ranging from 0 to 5 VDC (protected against higher or negative voltages).
• Headphone output: 1/4" stereo phone jack.

Includes power supply for 110V – 240V AC operation (13-15 VDC, 700 mA) and operation manual.
